S. Doug: You have to be right. A web site run by one "Horseye" gives the following, which sounds older and maybe more authentic.THE RAILWAY PORTER SONG
Well, I am a railway porter and my name is Willie Wee,
I'm the maist important person ye could ever hope to see,
I'm in charge of every station, fae Dundonell tae Dundee,
And I'm only here to tell ye where ye change for.
Ye change fer Auchtermuchty, Tilly or Tuchty; Crieff and John o' Groats
Fife and Tulloch oats, Beecham's pills and Quaker Oats:
Ye change for Ecclefechan, Aberdeen, and all the stations in between.
Unless ye want tae gang tae Tobermory.
Ye should see me hurl ma barrow, ye should see me sweep the flair,
If there's no a tip forthcoming ye should hear me curse and swear,
When a train comes in the station, ma heid flies in the air,
And I cry wi' all ma might - You've got to change here.
Well, one day the Royal Train drew in, my heart was full of pride,
I keeked in through the windae, and whae d'ye think I spied?
It was His Majesty ! King George - himself;
The Queen was by his side.
So I cried, wi' all ma might - Ye've got to change here.
Horseye observes he does not know where the song came from, but his uncle Tilch used to sing it.
